Event Description : Embassy of El Salvador in India presents "Monseñor Romero" Spanish documentary film screening with English subtitles as part of 'Society, Science & History' Series.
This documentary portrays the life of Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero, propeller
promovedor human rights and social justice in El Salvador. Óscar Arnulfo Romero y Galdámez (August 15, 1917 - March 24, 1980) was a prominent Roman Catholic priest in El Salvador during the 1960s and 1970s becoming Archbishop of San Salvador in 1977. After witnessing numerous violations of human rights, he began to speak out on behalf of the poor and the victims of repression. This led to numerous conflicts, both with the government in El Salvador and within the Catholic Church. After speaking out against U.S. military support for the government of El Salvador, and calling for soldiers to disobey orders to fire on innocent civilians, Archbishop Romero was shot dead while celebrating mass at the small chapel of the cancer hospital where he lived, on the 24th March 1980. It is believed that those who organised his assassination were members of Salvadoran death squads, including two graduates of the School of the Americas. His murder sparked international protest to demand respect for human rights in El Salvador. It is one of the ten martyrs of the twentieth century represented in the statues of Westminster Abbey in London, and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. Within the Catholic Church is considered a bishop who defended the "preferential option for the poor. " In one of his homilies, he said: "The mission of the church is identifiying itself withthe poor, and thus is how the church finds its salvation."
